I noticed a month a go that The Comeback Girl doesGratitude Fridays, so I have decided to try it out as well.

Gratitude lists help me get my mind right.

I am not sure which day it will long on, but the goal is to doit once, on Wednesdays or Fridays.

1. For Garland, for his funniness, generosity and chats on thefrustrations of being a Black artist.

2. For my niece and her desire to pursue theater.I see myself in her, a renegade rebel who believes in yes, even though others stay say no.

3. The the stars in a country sky. Its easy to forget how prettythey are at night.

4. For my cell phone. Two years ago, my first and only BlackBerry got stolen in Prospect Park. That! Was stressful. NowI am just happy to have a phone that works and the scrillto pay the bill, IN FULL every month.

5. For all the women who have tried to make progressivemedia (Audios Barbie, Black Lily,The Original Honey, HueMagazine, Fierce Magazine,) for Nerdy Black Girls. In researching youall, I see that what we are trying to do is continue what youall started.
